The club lights on. You heard about an afters. The sun’s just coming up and the light is a distraction. The main event is over, what next? Because you’re… NOT GOING HOME With a foreword by journalist Kate Spicer, the book documents the Summer of 1998 as photographer Mischa Haller travelled across the UK to chronicle clubbers and partygoers out on the streets in the small hours of the morning. He covered the time between the night clubs closing and people going home, those one or two hours when most of the world is asleep, but clubbers carry on.

This opportunity has been fully funded by The Photobook Café and Rapid Eye Darkrooms. During their time with us, students will take part in an intensive, multi-strand programme designed to provide practical, professional experience across the breadth of a working cultural organisation. The placement is structured across four core strands, enabling students to develop a broad and practical understanding of working within a cultural organisation. Through research and writing, they engage critically with the photobook collection while producing a substantial written project; through curation and public programming, they gain hands-on experience in exhibition-making, contributing to displays, talks, and artist liaison; through communications and documentation, they build skills in audience engagement across social media, editorial content, and visual documentation; and through facilitation and community engagement, they support and co-deliver zine workshops and participatory sessions. In addition, the programme includes specialist sessions such as an industry shadowing visit to Rapid Eye, offering insight into a leading independent photography space, and a business operations session led by The Photobook Cafe’s Director, introducing the practical and financial realities of running a sustainable cultural venue. Throughout April, a curated selection of photobooks studied by the cohort will be on public display in The Photobook Cafe and Rapid Eye Darkrooms. Each of the ten participating students has selected titles that reflect and support their individual practices and interests in printed matter. These selections are accompanied by a written research thesis, produced in-house as a series of zines, with each publication entering The Photobook Café’s permanent collection for visitors to read and reference. This work is particularly significant in the context of increasing inaccessibility to specialist materials, photobooks are often difficult to access, even within universities where library collections are being reduced. Through the placement, each student spends approximately 70 hours engaging directly with our collection, developing a deeper understanding of how an archive is built and activated, while also bringing attention to underrepresented publications and expanding the breadth of sub-genres within the existing collection. Alongside the physical displays at The Photobook Café and Rapid Eye darkrooms, the exhibitions will also be presented within our online photobook collection. This digital iteration ensures that the featured publications and research can be accessed by audiences worldwide, extending the reach and longevity of the programme beyond the physical space. The selected photobooks include Open Mic by Ewen Spencer, Bare With Me by Begum Yetis, Everwonderful by Jeano Edwards, The Wedding by Nick Waplington, and Metamorphosis, A Retrieval of Love by Samuel Zhang. Also featured are Iceland: Living with the Elements by Laura Kopold, Ogrody Szczęśliwości (Gardens of Bliss) by Artur Rychlicki, Somerset: A View from the Hill by Matilda Temperley, Wheal by Jack Whitefield, and Parways: A Photographic Journal Along the Ridgeway by Matt Writtle.

Title A name given to the resource The Body, The Earth, The Uncredited Hand by Miguel Manzano 2137.IN DIALOGUE WITH THE COLLECTION: STUDENT PERSPECTIVES Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2026 Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Photobook Cafe Description An account of the resource Photographers names: Luis Alberto Rodríguez, Stephen Gill, ALINA HIBBERT. The Body, The Earth, The Uncredited Hand is a self-published zine bringing together six images by three photographers: Luis Alberto Rodríguez, Stephen Gill, and Alina Hibbert, whose practices converge around the body, the natural world, and the act of quiet, attentive looking. Luis Alberto Rodríguez works at the intersection of documentary and intimate portraiture, photographing bodies: their weight, labour, texture, and presence. Stephen Gill approaches photography as collaboration with place itself: burying prints in earth, pressing flowers and seeds onto film, submerging images in water, letting nature alter and author the work alongside him. Alina Hibbert is a photographer and horticulturalist whose practice is rooted in botanical knowledge and a deep attunement to native landscapes, using photography to make visible what is overlooked in the natural world around us. Together, these three practices ask what it means to be in relation: to a body, to land, to living things that precede and outlast us. The book does not argue a thesis so much as hold a question: what forms of knowledge live in the earth, in the body, in the hands that tend without being named?

These selections are accompanied by a written research thesis, produced in-house as a series of zines, with each publication entering The Photobook Café’s permanent collection for visitors to read and reference. This work is particularly significant in the context of increasing inaccessibility to specialist materials, photobooks are often difficult to access, even within universities where library collections are being reduced. Through the placement, each student spends approximately 70 hours engaging directly with our collection, developing a deeper understanding of how an archive is built and activated, while also bringing attention to underrepresented publications and expanding the breadth of sub-genres within the existing collection. Alongside the physical displays at The Photobook Café and Rapid Eye darkrooms, the exhibitions will also be presented within our online photobook collection. This digital iteration ensures that the featured publications and research can be accessed by audiences worldwide, extending the reach and longevity of the programme beyond the physical space. The selected photobooks include Open Mic by Ewen Spencer, Bare With Me by Begum Yetis, Everwonderful by Jeano Edwards, The Wedding by Nick Waplington, and Metamorphosis, A Retrieval of Love by Samuel Zhang. Also featured are Iceland: Living with the Elements by Laura Kopold, Ogrody Szczęśliwości (Gardens of Bliss) by Artur Rychlicki, Somerset: A View from the Hill by Matilda Temperley, Wheal by Jack Whitefield, and Parways: A Photographic Journal Along the Ridgeway by Matt Writtle.

This opportunity has been fully funded by The Photobook Café and Rapid Eye Darkrooms. During their time with us, students will take part in an intensive, multi-strand programme designed to provide practical, professional experience across the breadth of a working cultural organisation. The placement is structured across four core strands, enabling students to develop a broad and practical understanding of working within a cultural organisation. Through research and writing, they engage critically with the photobook collection while producing a substantial written project; through curation and public programming, they gain hands-on experience in exhibition-making, contributing to displays, talks, and artist liaison; through communications and documentation, they build skills in audience engagement across social media, editorial content, and visual documentation; and through facilitation and community engagement, they support and co-deliver zine workshops and participatory sessions. In addition, the programme includes specialist sessions such as an industry shadowing visit to Rapid Eye, offering insight into a leading independent photography space, and a business operations session led by The Photobook Cafe’s Director, introducing the practical and financial realities of running a sustainable cultural venue. Throughout April, a curated selection of photobooks studied by the cohort will be on public display in The Photobook Cafe and Rapid Eye Darkrooms. Each of the ten participating students has selected titles that reflect and support their individual practices and interests in printed matter. These selections are accompanied by a written research thesis, produced in-house as a series of zines, with each publication entering The Photobook Café’s permanent collection for visitors to read and reference.
